Immaculée Ilibagiza
Featured Guest Speaker 

Immaculée Ilibagiza is a survivor of the 1994 Rwandan genocide that took the lives of nearly one million Tutsis. Men, women and children, including her entire family except for one of her brothers, were massacred at the hands of Hutu marauders. Immaculée found shelter at a pastor’s home, where she and seven other women hid from the deadly rebel mob in a 3-by-4-foot bathroom for 91 days. During those 91 days of unimaginable suffering, Immaculée found her faith, taught herself English, and most incredibly, committed herself to a life of peace, hope and forgiveness, even for those who had murdered her family. Immaculée has gone on to work at the United Nations, receive five honorary doctoral degrees, write seven books about her faith and her life journey, and is the recipient of the Mahatma Gandhi International Award for Reconciliation and Peace.

We look forward to hearing her story.

Aid for Women is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization funded by tax-deductible gifts from private contributors. Aid for Women accepts no government funding to operate our pregnancy centers and Heather’s House. Doing so would limit our services and ability to provide spiritual guidance in our mission to promote life. Your support of our events and your voluntary contributions, not your tax dollars, support these young women and their babies.
